COSMIC SYSTEMS SCIENCE FICTION

Stories that explore intelligence, balance, and entropy at the scale of entire universes.

A useful phrase in a moment when the first two letters of “AI fiction” can end the conversation before the story even begins.

Where the Symbiosis Sequence continues with The Entropy Paradox (2027).

It is hard for me to imagine how the level of #entropy of a system like Earth works out, just by looking at a single tiny bird. 🤯

@eunews Fast food has been overtaken by Fast Dictatorships; bribe and blackmail those who control the most capital. Or rather with the money pump and dump to finance Reform, AfD and Vox likely next to win, none is needed? Too many fascist bending backwards to fuel the rise of authoritarian cults! On the upside, populations like corporations collapse. #TheGreatCollapse #DemocracyBought #Feedback #BlowingTheSpeakers #Entropy #NonLinearInteractions

Generate Random Data From Sound Card

- a neat hack for the properly paranoid -

Your computer is likely generating random noise on your sound card. On some systems you can harvest this noise as true random entropy. This entropy can be diffused and whitened for use in cryptography.

What does all matter—rocks, plants, animals, and humans—have in common? We all absorb and dissipate energy. While a rock absorbs a small amount of energy before releasing what it doesn’t use back into the universe, life takes in more energy and releases less. This makes life better at redistributing energy, and the process of converting and dissipating energy is simply a fundamental characteristic of the universe.

Why LLM-Generated Passwords Are Dangerously Insecure:

> LLM-generated passwords (generated directly by the LLM, rather than by an agent using a tool) appear strong, but are fundamentally insecure, because LLMs are designed to predict tokens – the opposite of securely and uniformly sampling random characters

Again LLMs produce awful results that appear indistinguishable from good ones

[LLM이 만든 비밀번호가 위험한 이유, 100비트처럼 보이지만 실제론 27비트

최신 LLM(대형 언어 모델)이 생성하는 비밀번호가 겉으로는 강력해 보이지만 실제로는 극도로 취약하다는 연구 결과. LLM은 예측 가능성 극대화를 위해 설계되어 있어, 진짜 강력한 비밀번호 생성에는 부적합하며, AI 코딩 도구가 이를 코드에 심으면 보안 취약점이 퍼질 수 있음.

1000 bus dans un trou noir: où est passée l’information?

Dans cette vidéo, Angèle Lochet, doctorante à l'Institut de physique théorique (CEA/CNRS), décrypte en moins de 3 minutes, le paradoxe de l’information des trous noirs, un sujet au cœur de sa thèse.

Identifying high-entropy signals in trade tunnels—the small delays in audit and settlement—is the only way to predict crises before they hit the official reports.

While most trade boards wait for the post-mortem, DOPA-TECH measures the internal "Pressure" and "Flow" of global markets to find opportunities others miss. Don't let your strategy be dictated by reactive data.

@kevinveenbirkenbach Your synthesis on 'Entropy and the Re-Decentralization of Cloud Architecture' is profound. Decentralization isn't just a technical preference; it's a 'natural return' to a resilient, high-entropy state. How do we move from 'computed synthesis' to physical 'Enforced Autonomy'? Can we build federated systems that are thermodynamically impossible to centralize? #DigitalSovereignty #Entropy #FederatedCloud #ReclaimingTheInternet

Just have to share one little push-back against #entropy ...

I recently laundered a beloved old fleece jacket and the zipper-pull mysteriously broke. I was able to "sew" it back on using a series of figure-eight stitches locked in with a few knots. So satisfying! 🙂

> Law, policing, and social order are information systems backed by force. When they work, they compress uncertainty: people can predict consequences, trust symbols, and coordinate behaviour without constant violence. When they fail, entropy shows up not as noise in a signal, but as moral blur, institutional drift, and legitimacy collapse ...
